Segmentation in OAS 6.4

Marco Poloni - PAW

Hi there, anyone as tried to activate the segmentation functionality in OAS 6.4? I'm going to perform a PoC for a customer and would like to collect any experience done.

Thanks for any hint!

Look for "Oracle Marketing Segmentation" : https://docs.oracle.com/en/middleware/bi/analytics-server/whats-different-oas/index.html#OASWD-GUID-C907A4B0-FAFD-4F54-905C-D6FCA519C262

Thanks Gianni, I already went through that document - this is exactly the reason to ask for any practical experience in the field. I have actually 2 customers using Siebel Marketing with OBIEE 12g and wondering if and how they can move to OAS. They are unsure if the deprecated functionality is working stable enough for production use.

They would need it to bridge the time until an alternative solution is in place (or to completely replace Siebel Marketing).

As that same document says,

Deprecated: Deprecated features won't be enhanced in the future but are supported for the full life of the Oracle Analytics Server. Where indicated, a deprecated feature might be desupported in a future, major update.

It means that the feature is just the same as you got in 12c and does work and is supported (you can open SR if needed), but nothing will ever be changed for now, till the day they will be desupport it and this means it can disappear at any future release.
